For many things within the system, one person cannot be arbitrary and dictatorial. The necessary procedures must be followed. Otherwise, it cannot be called a democratic dictatorship.
Anyway, when the meeting started, he put Zhang Yaoyao's information on the table and roughly told everyone present about her personal strengths and his opinions.
There shouldn't be many people who object. After all, with his current status and position, it shouldn't be difficult for him to ensure that someone can participate in the domestic fashion competition.
The difficulty lies in the fact that the appearance of Zhang Yaoyao has given him great hope. He hopes that Zhang Yaoyao can maintain this innovative and fearless spirit, keep making it to the finals, and preferably become famous and become an overnight sensation, thus driving his political career to go more smoothly.
That way, his original intention of supporting an unknown person to participate in the domestic fashion competition would not be in vain. After all, people are selfish. When you don't have the ability and want to take the next step by relying on the talent and ability of others, you have to give this person a green light all the way and let him go to the end without any obstacles.
Zhang Yaoyao naturally didn't know what was going on in Jiang Tao's mind at the moment. She had come here just to test the waters today. She was already very grateful to the other party for giving her the opportunity to participate, so she said it directly.
"Okay, then thank you, Vice Mayor Zhang, for giving me this opportunity!"
Having said that, Zhang Yaoyao looked at Jiang Tao, and their eyes met in the air. Jiang Tao seemed to see a small flame burning in Zhang Yaoyao's eyes, like an infinite number of sparks that were enough to start a prairie fire. Zhang Yaoyao continued.
"Please rest assured, Vice Mayor Zhang, as long as you give me a platform, I will do my best to sprint to a higher platform!"
Jiang Tao was very satisfied with Zhang Yaoyao's understanding. It was obvious that these words were an assurance to him that he would go all out, live up to everyone's expectations, and complete the competition. He encouraged her with satisfaction.
"Well! It's a good thing to have ambition and fighting spirit. Work hard, young people. The future truly belongs to you!"
After hearing Jiang Tao's words, Zhang Yaoyao expressed her gratitude.
"Thank you, Vice Mayor Jiang! As long as Vice Mayor Jiang gives me a chance, I will work hard!" Zhang Yaoyao couldn't guarantee what results she would achieve, but it would definitely exceed everyone's expectations.
At least it can't be like the entries City A sent out in the past, which were boring and lacked innovation.
Having said that, the matter has been basically resolved, Jiang Tao waved his hand and said.
"Alright, that's all for today's meeting. I have other things to do. I've taken note of your request and will let everyone express their opinions during the meeting. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll add your name to the list of participants in this year's national fashion competition."
Zhang Yaoyao expressed her joy again.
"Okay, then I'll wait for good news from Vice Mayor Jiang!"
Regardless of whether things succeed or not, you still have to have the right attitude.
After leaving the city government, Zhang Yaoyao drove to the place where she had agreed to meet with Lu Sinian. The man, with his tall figure, had already been standing there waiting.
From Zhang Yaoyao's perspective, Lu Sinian's posture was as straight as a pine tree, with the strength and handsomeness that a soldier should have. It must be said that Lu Sinian's appearance and figure were perfect. No wonder she was attracted by his appearance even though she had been single for two lifetimes.
And what about Lu Sinian? Ever since Zhang Yaoyao appeared in his sight, he immediately spotted Zhang Yaoyao in the driver's seat.
The two of them looked at each other from a long distance, their eyes strained, with a sense of distance that was filled with longing for each other. Lu Sinian thought, this is the stickiness that lovers should have, until Zhang Yaoyao's car stopped precisely beside her, and Lu Sinian quickly got in.
Zhang Yaoyao started the car and drove forward without stopping. Lu Sinian asked while fastening his seat belt.
"How did your visit to the city government to inquire about participating in the national fashion design competition go?"
Did it work or not? If it didn't work out, then he would have to think of a way for his girlfriend. After all, the woman he loved had a dream, and he would do his best to build this platform for her to fly.
In response to Lu Sinian's question, Zhang Yaoyao thought about what had just happened and gave an ambiguous answer.
"It should be done, but there is no definite news yet. We will have to wait for a while to find out."
Jiang Tao undoubtedly appreciated her attitude. He said it was a success, but did not immediately reserve a spot. But if it didn't work out, the other party agreed and spoke well of her.
Anyway, Zhang Yaoyao wasn't sure if she could participate in the domestic fashion design competition, so she took it one step at a time.
Lu Sinian frowned subconsciously and asked.
"There's no definite news. Do you know who you're going to meet today?"
According to Lu Sinian's understanding of those who are in politics, it is normal to give ambiguous answers. Because things are difficult to define, they dare not agree or refuse them outright, so they speak vaguely.
Therefore, he wanted to know who Zhang Yaoyao was going to meet today, and to lobby privately to ensure that Zhang Yaoyao's name would be on the list of participants in City A's international fashion competition.
Looking at Lu Sinian's expression and the tone of his voice, Zhang Yaoyao obviously realized that something was wrong and turned her head.
"What's the matter? Is there a problem?"
Could it be that things have changed? Is the water really that deep down?
Lu Sinian put his hand on the car window and said in an unfathomable manner.
"Tell me, who did you meet today?"
Seeing Lu Sinian's attitude, Zhang Yaoyao did not hide it and spoke while driving.
"I didn't meet any of them, just their deputy mayor, whose name seemed to be Jiang Tao."
"Jiang Tao!"
Seeing Lu Sinian's thoughtful expression, Zhang Yaoyao asked back.
"Why, do you know this man?"
Lu Sinian quickly suppressed the expression on his face and spoke calmly.
"I've heard of him, but I'm not very familiar with him. Just ask about the person you met today."
Zhang Yaoyao: “…”
Seeing Zhang Yaoyao was silent, Lu Sinian changed the subject.
"By the way, when you were at the city hall just now, I was wandering downstairs and bought you a gift?"
Zhang Yaoyao, who was looking ahead intently, turned the steering wheel and asked in confusion.
"A gift? What did you buy me?"
Today is not her birthday, nor is it any special anniversary. Why would Lu Sinian buy her a gift?
While Zhang Yaoyao was curious, she also felt uneasy. She always felt that this guy would not give her anything good, and who knows what bad things he might be up to.
Lu Sinian smiled mischievously, turned his head, and said with a serious expression.
"You're curious about what gift I bought you, right? Don't worry, I've already had someone send it to the New Vision Clothing Store. You'll know what it is when you get back."
Zhang Yaoyao: “…”
Is this intended to be kept secret?
